Liddy Gee y Iggy Pee
An eccentric indie band from Foster City, California. Known for their complex Foster City vernacular and understated good looks, Liddy Gee y Iggy Pee often leave their listeners soaked in a post-coital wake of Budweiser and circular logic. They currently play as a guitar duo, although rumors are abound that they may be adding a drummer for future shows. Their music has been described as the combined sound of a rambunctious, rebellious youth and a fierce dedication to the humor of inside jokes, obscure lyrics, and quirky guitar spasms.
Members
Liddy Gee, lead singer and lyricist, has been known to utilize a two-sided psychological mask during live shows, often juxtaposing harsh screams and seductive coos to emphasis the loud/soft dynamic of Liddy Gee y Iggy Pee's music.
Iggy Pee, takes the role of graphic designer in the band, arranging, adding to, and filling out Lindsey's structural ingenuity with "found items": chains, empty wine bottles, boxes, screams, and exasperated sighs of triumph.
Both members hail from Foster City, California.

Influences
According to the band (in what appears to be story form): "Leo CoHEN & Gene 'G-unit' Wilder" muttered Liddy, in between drags off his large, often phallic, Cubano - elegantly wrapped in the film of his saliva. "Oi, Oi!" exclaimed Iggy with his arms in the air, a toothbrush in one hand, and a pitch fork in another, "HUNTING BEARS! IS PERHAPS ONE OF MY FONDEST HOBBIES!!!!" Suddenly, Liddy's aura turned into a deep, dark shade of honey mustard. "THAT'S IT MAN! Calvin and Hobbes!" And so they quivered giggled, and they drank spritzer until noon.
Controversy
Much has been made about the strange Spanish "y" that combines the nicknamed parts of "Liddy Gee" & "Iggy Pee". Little has been said by the band about the language barrier introduced by the "y" (pronounced "e") but theories are abound that the "y" emphasizes the band's universal appeal and simultaneously exemplifies the band's preference for peculiar lyrics, singing styles, and guitar techniques.
